Loonie Stampers Challenge #1

                        

One of the greatest things about blogging and hanging out on forums, such as Papertrey, is all the great people I have "met" and become friends with. Three of them are fellow Canadians who are super talented stampers and bloggers but most importantly they are amazing girls who are fun, fun, fun!!  I met Jewels in January when we both won the Papertrey GSS.  We only live 2.5 hours apart and we hit it off immediately.  I met Dee and Regan on the Papertrey forums.  They live in Eastern Canada across the street from each other. 

I thought it would be fun to do a blog challenge with these girls and when I asked they were all for it.  Soooo....every 2 weeks one of us will pick a stamp set and colors that we must use and then post the results.  It will be fun to see how different everyones cards can be using the same ingredients.  We would love it if you would play along.  If you do be sure to post a link in the comments section so we can check it out.  For this weeks challenge I chose the Papertrey set Piece of Cake as well as the colors Berry Sorbet, Aqua Mist and Choc Chip.  Any of the stamps from the set can be used. 

When trying to think of a name for our little challenge Loonie Stampers Challenge popped in to my head.  I told the girls it was because we are Canadian and our dollar coin is called a Loonie.......but really, it's because the girls are a little bit crazy!!  LOL, but don't tell them I said that.

Please check out their great cards below.  I hope you enjoyed this challenge as much as we did!!
